PS little correction on my part: there still needs to be some kind of trajectory prediction but that should be a minimal problem unless you have very slow bullets. This could work in game and keep both the HW1 and HW2 mechanics at the same time! Just differentiate the miss effect so that weapons with 0% accuracy fire straight where they are aiming and voilà! But they would always miss according to the RNG system alone, while still having that bullet go exactly and possibly hit like it did in the physical simulation.

What I mean is: weapon would still check to be in range, have the correct arc fire and will fire as usual. I know it’s possible to turn on a flag so that when a bullet physically hits well, it deals damage like it should, then… if you set weapon accuracy to 0%, change the engine section that displays the bullet casually missing and let it go straight as it should instead the behaviour should be identical to HW1 beside that weird 0% thing. There is a little point I don’t get about the HW2 engine and its fire system: If my theory is correct, this will at least give the fighters back the life time in homeworld one (and far better dog fights) comboed with the evasive flying the RNG system will no longer be in use unless the ion beams are left on it or something.Īpplie this to all projectile weapons and maybe nerf the fighters weapons and some of the feel of homeworld 1, if I’m correct, may return. A small veer to the right, sudden tiny jump to the upper left as they fly in combat. On top of that adding a random burp like feature to all small crafts flight path, we don’t have evasive or anything so maybe this could be a constant. Only able to fire when pointed at its selected target. Only none homing, much faster, and maybe with out the boom of the normal missile weapon. Instead of firing projectiles that use the RNG system, instead it fires what the game thinks is missiles. Would it be feasible to make all weapons use this coding? Example a interseptors gun. In essance there a tiny craft on a suicide run like you can order with your fighters and ships right? After all they just home on and blow up when they hit there target. I got to thinking, I doubt the RNG system of homeworld 2 applies to missiles. Had an idea for those of us who love homeworld 1 that may… make it more like what the game used to feel like.
